Selecting different materials would not change much. Call the frequencies \lambda_1, \lambda_2, \lambda_3...

You can prove that changing the material has no effect on the relative frequencies: \lambda_2 / \lambda_1, \lambda_3 / \lambda_1, etc. are completely independent of the material.

The shape is the determining factor; changing the materials (and hence the wave speed) just dilates the whole spectrum.

TPOT has a lot of spillover into the rest of twitter at this point; I assure you people in his twitter circles see their stuff all the time.

People do not graduate with a STEM PhD with hundreds of thousands in debt; that is not how the education system works pretty much anywhere in the world.

Interesting. In context that is not the claim what I am contradicting in the comment chain, despite that it is the literal reading of what I said.

I was literally contributing to Gentoo Linux at age 13. Before, my dad started me on Slackware.

edit: downvoted. Some of you all simply have no belief in or respect for the intelligence of children.
